Since I'm getting married I've started to think about kid names, and I think it would be ideal to have a name that can be spelled using only letters from the first position on phone keys. This yields the set {A, D, G, J, M, P, T, W}, which is a pretty respectable group of letters for a name. Ideally, the name shouldn't contain any double letters, since I hate waiting the second it takes for the phone to allow me to retype the same letter again using the same key. Unfortunately, the Internet Anagram Server reports that there aren't many potential names.

Wow. After awhile it just breaks down to what looks like a genetic code.
GTCATCAGACTGAGT may actually be your son/daughters name in the future. (earie huh?)
GATACA all over again. Dum dee dum dum DAAAAHHH!
How about "Adam"? Aside from the occasional "Where's Eve?" comment, the name has always served me well.
How about "Gad?" That's a Biblical name.
Then again, just because a name is Biblical doesn't mean you won't go to hell if you actually name your kid that. But you can always name your daughter Pam.
Ixnay on the Adamay. For one thing, the A repeats. For another, "where's Eve" is nothing. Things will get much uglier if he ever makes friends with a guy named Steve.
No matter what you name your kid, there's always going to be someone with a "Where's Eve?" type comment. My maiden name is Brilliant and I wish I had a dollar for every person who has ever said "Are you brilliant? har har har" because then not only would I have been born Brilliant, I'd be rich too. But even without a name like that, they still find something. They used to call me "Rutabaga" because I moved back to California from Utah. When I tried to explain to them that nobody in Utah grows rutabagas, they didn't care.
I'll second Adam as a good name, given the criteria. Since A is the only vowel, you're pretty limited. Adam, Pam, Dag(wood?), or you could be sadistic and name your kid Wat.
"What's your name?"
"Wat."
"I said, what's your name..."
"Wat!"
In honor of one of the greatest presidents of our time. Just name him "W"
In Adam, the A repeats, but it's not a double letter, which was what Michael didn't want.
Wow, you must have a very understanding future wife.
How about "DAWG"? Then you could say, "Sup DAWG"
Boy or girl, name it Pam.
What about Pat? or....Jag? And on the 16th birthday you could buy him the car.
How about Peter.
'Jag' sounds pretty wicked. Howe about 'Jag'?
just keep it simple
